Young flock to Cup Week https://bitofayarn.com Darcy Cosgriff Nov 12, 2025 There was a distinctly young feel about the 286,746 strong crowd across the four Spring Carnival days, and the demographic stats have backed that up.https://bitofayarn.com Of all general admission tickets purchased, 53 percent were bought by people under the age of 35, up 14% from 2025. Victoria Racing Club CEO Kylie Rogers said it was a “particularly exciting” year in that regard. “The success of the 2025 Melbourne Cup Carnival has emphatically demonstrated that racing is back and thriving. With our largest crowd since 2018, record-breaking wagering turnover on Lexus Melbourne Cup Day, and significant uplift in broadcast figures, the momentum and energy throughout the week was infectious," she said. “What's particularly exciting is the significant growth in younger audiences. This Carnival has demonstrated that racing continues to captivate a diverse range of audiences.https://bitofayarn.com Rogers said the Melbourne Cup Carnival continued to be Australia's most-celebrated sporting and entertainment event, and the momentum gave the VRC tremendous confidence for the future. Daily attendance figures reflected the Carnival's broad appeal, with Howden Victoria Derby Day attracting 86,343 guests, Lexus Melbourne Cup Day attracting 84,373, Crown Oaks Day welcoming 51,239, and TAB Champions Stakes Day closing the week with 65,012 racegoers.

I was watching the other day from somewhere and thought "that is much much better" due to the angle I think it was.
